When you said you painted the pedestal black - I wasn't sure, since I hate to cover up natural wood. But the effect is excellent. <br /><br />Did you change the countertop on the island too? In the before picture it looks like granite, and in the after it looks like wood. Could just be the camera angle though.Practical Decorating Ideashttp://practical-decorating-ideas.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7781670590071996754.post-12136896752934108462011-03-13T21:30:48.720-04:002011-03-13T21:30:48.720-04:00wow, look at all these links! thanks for hosting t...wow, look at all these links! thanks for hosting this blog party.Handy Man, Crafty Womanhttp://www.handymancraftywoman.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7781670590071996754.post-8842217008152611282011-03-12T10:59:08.290-05:002011-03-12T10:59:08.290-05:00We have chairs with those same rush seats as your ...We have chairs with those same rush seats as your bench. I wipe them down like you said, but also when I'm going to vacuum/sweep the floor, I lean the chair over and beat it from the UNDER side. You wouldn't believe how much stuff comes out on the floor. Then I just vacuum it up.Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00141184380494909194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7781670590071996754.post-20966969548875641312011-03-11T11:46:29.594-05:002011-03-11T11:46:29.594-05:00I love your table so mucho!

Last year, I painted the trim and shelving in our family room. The room is small and the trim was stained dark cherry. It was pretty... took a little nerve on my part to do the first brush stroke but I am so happy I did. Also painted it the same "shabby" green along with a lawyers bookshelf. It looks like a so much larger room and that was only redoing the trim.
